Intro:                                                                   Am, F     Am, F ...

Our table was lit by a candle while we shared a meal without wine        Am, F; Am, F
But spiced by the warmth of a touch in the heart of a Spanish shrine     Am, F; Am, F
And when the chimes told us to say goodbye                               Am, G
I could see in the darkness a light in your eyes                         F, E - F
.
Your eyes, they tell a story                                             C, G
That your lips cannot repeat                                             F, E - F
Your face, it may be silent                                              C, G
But your eyes, they speak                                                F - E (hold)
.                                                                        Am, F; Am, F
.
I was amazed by the dress you chose to wear for me that evening          Am, F; Am, F
You didn’t seem to notice my stares at the vision I was seeing           Am, F; Am, F
Of a woman who tries to say goodbye                                      Am, G
But that’s not what I read in the light in your eyes                     F, E - F
.
Your eyes, they tell a story                                             C, G
That your lips cannot repeat                                             F, E - F
Your face, it may be silent                                              C, G
But your eyes, they speak                                                F - E (hold)
.                                                                        Am ...
.
How can so much be shared                                                G, F
Without a word spoken                                                    Am, F
How can treasure be spared                                               G, F
If the seal has been broken                                              Am, F,   G - F - E, ...
.
Musical break                                                            Am, F, Am, F

Your eyes, they tell a story                                             C, G
That your lips cannot repeat                                             F, E - F
Your face, it may be silent                                              C, G
But your eyes, they speak                                                F - E (hold)
.                                                                        Am ...
